Abstract
An angled holder for mounting thereon a pickup coil for detecting rotational angles of a crank shaft of an internal combustion engine is composed of a base portion, a bent portion and a reinforcing portion connecting the both of the base and bent portions. The reinforcing portion serves to suppress an excessive stress imposed on a bending line along which the base and bent portions are bent due to high vibration of the engine. Accordingly, the angled holder having the reinforcing portion can withstand high vibration and its damage or breakage due to the engine vibration is prevented. Output signals from the pickup coil mounted on the angled holder are accurate and stable because the pickup coil is positioned accurately against the engine. The angled holder is made of a metal plate by a simple presswork at a low cost.
